Hi I'm Vicki, nice to meet you
With 20 years of experience in the industry, I've worked with international agencies and independent design studios across London, New Zealand, and the South West. Over the (many) years, I’ve built a diverse and adaptable skill set, with a particular strength in visualisation for layout, publication, and presentation design. But throw me into any brief and I'll tackle it head on. Clients value my strong work ethic, sharp attention to detail, and ability to collaborate seamlessly within their teams.
Since returning to the UK in late 2021, I decided to give up the cushy stability of permanent work and dive into the world of freelance. I’ve been supporting local design studio Yoke with publication and digital projects for nature-based clients, as well as Global Marketing Agency Indicia Worldwide on campaigns for Heineken, Coca-Cola, Nissan, Kitkat, Konica Minolta, and Wiltshire Farm Foods. I also take on ad-hoc design projects through recruitment agents and good old-fashioned word of mouth.
Before freelancing, I worked agency-side across retail, luxury goods, travel, fashion, education, and health sectors. I’m available for both Design and Creative Artworker roles, whether in-house or fully remote. If you or your team need freelance support, then please do get in touch to check my availability and rates.
Happy clients say it best
Vicki freelanced for me during a particularly hectic period where there was a huge amount of urgent work to execute. I needed someone with exceptional design skills, impeccable attention to detail and a designer who was able to get up to speed almost immediately. Vicki was all that and more. Her work was always perfect and she would often pick up on things that I hadn't seen myself. Just as importantly for me, she's a great person and we had some hilarious interactions. I'm very glad I have Vicki in my professional toolbox!

We have worked with Vicki a lot over the years, calling on her design skills and experience to support the team again and again. Vicki's attitude is extremely positive, and is like a breath of fresh air in the studio. Her work ethic is 110% and multiple times she has gone above and beyond to help us meet our deadlines. I will definitely be asking for Vicki's help again when the project arises - I can't recommend her highly enough.
Jay Bigford, Creative Director, Yoke
Vicki has worked for us on multiple occasions, a great collaborative designer who brings a wealth of experience and positive energy to the varied tasks we've challenged her with. A pleasure to work with.
